The turnover of top managers of a company is very important and may provide for the conflicting
results on the effects of the outsider succession (Karaevli, 2007).
However, in real life, because there is always a variety of difficulties need to be solved in people's
relationship, it is hard to find a perfect team. Then, the problem is how can we minimize the
differences and gaps, give full play to each team member 's personal advantages, and maximize the
advantages of the whole team?
First of all, in the initial phase of building the team, manager should have efficient, reasonable
planning. Many of management tools can be used to simplify the team construction work. By
understanding of employees in depth, managers can define their team members' advantages and
disadvantages, the likelihood of work and style to deal with problems, the difference of basic values,

OFT performance improvement
Policy
The OFT aims to ensure that there will be a fair and consistent approach to the enforcement of
standards of performance throughout the organisation. The performance improvement policy and
procedures help to promote fairness and consistency in the treatment of individuals and encourage
improvement in individual performance. In many cases early intervention by a staff manager can
prevent an issue escalating to a serious performance issue and this is therefore strongly
recommended. HR (employee relations) can be consulted at any stage of this process.
This policy and procedure applies to all employees 1 of the OFT whether permanent or fixed term. It

Employees subject to the procedure and participating in a performance improvement programme
will not receive progression increases to their salary until they have successfully completed the
programme.
Informal action
In the first instance performance issues should be dealt with informally by the staff manager (in
discussion with the work manager where appropriate) and the employee. This is part of day to day
management and is intended to ensure that an employee is aware of what is expected of them and
prevent problems arising.
If there are issues that need to be addressed, targets for improvement should be set and a timescale
for review agreed. If this fails to deliver the necessary improvement in performance, formal action
under stage one of this policy and procedure will follow.
Formal action – stage one
Following consultation with HR, the staff manager will arrange a meeting with the employee, the
objective of which will be to:

The Five Dimensions Of The Five Factor Model Of Personality
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In reaction to globalization, rapid changes in external environments, and a desire by organizations to
remain competitive, organizations have continued to flatten, decentralize, re–engineer their business
processes, downsize, and empower their employees. To facilitate these changes and gain a
competitive edge, managers are increasingly turning to team structures. The actual team design used
to support organizational goals may include such structures as cross functional teams, functional
work teams, project teams, self–managed teams, intact work teams, employee participation teams,
problem–solving teams, maintenance or support teams, and management teams. Studies shows that

Their team of experts failed.
"When a team is formed it focuses on the future and once it succeeds it focuses on the past" by
Edwin Lee. AT&T is a successful company and the largest long distance carrier in the United States.
But by focusing on their past successes, they failed to look towards the future. On the contrast,
Black & Decker looked for solutions that would transform their company to succeed in the future.
Comparing these two companies show how the management teams of an organization can guide a
company's destiny.
Can success breed failure? That is the opinion of Edwin Lee. He cited the success of IBM with their
introduction of the IBM PC, followed with a failure, the PC Jr. Apple Inc. was successful with its
Apple II and followed with a failure, Lisa. He is of the opinion that success of a product by a
management team can lead to the failure of the next product.
Can failure breed success? In Edwin Lee's article he examined generals Norman Schwartzkopf and
Colin Powell, whom both served during the Vietnam War. He suggests that experience earned from
the failures of Vietnam, both men the wisdom and knowledge to lead to the success of Desert Storm.
But even with their record success he would not want them to lead another battle. His conclusion is
that they would rely on their past success and would not be good at changing for future

For example, effective team development can often help a team to speed through the stages to
becoming a high–performing team. The stages are "forming", "storming", "norming", "performing"
and, more recently, "reforming". Mazany, Francis and Sumich (1995) elaborate on the topic: "Team
building is an investment in the "people" resource of an organization. Important to any investment
decision is an assessment of how effective are the outcomes in relation to the money and time spent.
So it is vital to measure effectiveness, and this can be done through the use of case studies and
questionnaires. Team development should not disguise the fact that a team contains individuals.
Rather, it should highlight that it is individualism that provides a team with tremendous amounts of
power, and should help to develop the individuals to improve their contribution to the team."
Tuckman 's model suggests that as the team moves through the stages of development members are
concerned with resolving both inter–personal relationships and task activities. During the forming
stage, members complete initial assessments of inter–personal relationships and norms, and attempt
to identify the nature and extent of required task activities. The storming stage is characterised by
intra–group conflict in respect of both inter–personal relationships (as behaviour norms and
leadership have yet to be established) and task activities (caused in part by emotional

These individuals teamed up in writing the article, "Team Cognition: Development and Evolution in

within such endeavors (He, Brian and William, 2010). Various software developments require the
implementation of dissimilar amounts of knowledge. This deems the implementation of an
individual's knowledge appears to be insufficient in the accomplishment of such objectives.
The authors of the article consider a team to be an association of two or more individuals working
together towards the achievement of a set objective. The authors highlight the power of team
cognition in envisaging the likelihood of team effectiveness. However, studying team cognition has
been marred significantly by conceptualizing and determining its constructs (He, Brian and William,

Performance management is the systematic process by which an agency involves its employees, as
individuals and members of a group, in improving organizational effectiveness in the
accomplishment of agency mission and goals. | Employee performance management includes: *
planning work and setting expectations, * continually monitoring performance, * developing the
capacity to perform, * periodically rating performance in asummary fashion, and * rewarding good
performance. |

Organizations need to know who their best performers are.Within the context of formal performance
appraisal requirements, rating means evaluating employee or group performance against the
elements and standards in an employee 's performance plan and assigning a summary rating of
record. The rating of record is assigned according to procedures included in the organization 's
appraisal program. It is based on work performed during an entire appraisal period. The rating of
record has a bearing on various other personnel actions, such as granting within–grade pay increases
and determining additional retention service credit in a reduction in force.Note: Although group
performance may have an impact on an employee 's summary rating, a rating of record is assigned
only to an individual, not to a group. | | | | In an effective organization, rewards are used well.
Rewarding means recognizing employees, individually and as members of groups, for their
performance and acknowledging their contributions to the agency 's mission. A basic principle of
effective management is that all behavior is controlled by its consequences. Those consequences can
and should be both formal and informal and both positive and negative.Good performance is
recognized without waiting for nominations for formal awards to be solicited. Recognition is an
ongoing, natural part of day–to–day experience. A lot of the actions

Independent Contractors – Team work and Performance Management
Many organizations are open to various ways of acquiring resources for their projects; using existing
employees, hiring new employees, hiring contract resources or perhaps outsource part or the entire
project. Right resources are not always available to the PM within the organization and will often
look to hire from outside. Moore (2007, p.6) informed that globalization, advances in

❖ Excluded from accessing vital project information: Despite the fact that project managers want
hired contractors to work with other team members seamlessly, they do not want them to have
certain information because ideally "they are not part of the team" Barley & Kunda (2004). This
notion or action could exclude independent resources from getting along well with the project team
since they are aware they are deliberately shut off or starved of necessary information to work with.
❖ Focussed on their personal ambitions and may not be interested in team work: Hired independent
contractors see themselves as very valuable people due to the skills they possess and many of them
have personal ambitions on just delivering on what they were asked to do solely, not working as
team to achieve success together. Often times, they work alone to achieve results so they will remain
relevant to the project superior to others. Such actions hinder team building and diminish
interdependence that is vital in a cohesive and high performing team. There is less control of their
activities and how they want it done (Dunlap & Girvin 2009, p.14) ❖ Envy from employees who
think they earn less: Often times, hired contractors earn far more than organization employees for
same work they do on a project. Although some company employees may not be ignorant of the

According to Briscoe & Schuler (2004), performance can be viewed as a combination of several
variables, such as motivation, ability, working conditions and expectations. Variables which have a
direct effect on employee productivity in organisations and the ability of such organisations to meet
its strategic objectives. As such, performance appraisal systems seek to align employee behaviour,
activities and performance to organisational objectives and corporate strategy.
As stated earlier, performance appraisals are an important part of performance management. By
itself, it's not performance management but one of the tools used in managing performance.
Common anecdotes tend to state that organisations that conduct performance appraisals have
performance management systems which are false. Performance management is broad in the sense
that it is a congruence of activities which involve the management of individuals and groups to
achieve high levels of organisational performance. Performance appraisals on the other hand are
operational activities concerned with the individual and their performance and development.
Feedback and data received from performance appraisal activities feed into other elements of

Netflix : Recognition Strategy For Netflix
Recognition Strategy With the Netflix culture, employees are intrinsically motivated to perform at a
high standard and to remain an employee with Netflix. The recognition strategy for Netflix begins
with the recruiting and hiring process. To them, it is imperative to hire fully formed adults that are
having the required skills to be high performers within their respective department. The Netflix HR
department stated that in most organizations, 97% of the employees ensure that they are doing the
right thing. It's the 3% of employees that companies spend endless time and money to write and
enforce HR policies to deal with the problems. The goal for Netflix is to not hire those 3% of
employees. If they do, they easily let them go as a hiring mistake. After finding hiring the right
employee, Netflix believes in making their base salary strong. Their goal is to keep each employee's
pay at the top of the market for what that specific individual would be paid elsewhere. Netflix states
three major goals when determining the individuals pay. These are to pay them more than anyone
else likely would, as much as a replacement would cost, and to keep them if they had a higher offer
elsewhere. To ensure Netflix is offering this premium pay, they encourage employees to talk to
recruiters from competitors, ask how much they could get paid, and respond back to Netflix with the
number. This shows that they are proactively paying all of their salaried employees what they

Analysis of the Performance Management System
ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES – WERE ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES FOR PERFORMANCE
MANAGEMENT SUGGESTED? I have analyzed the performance management system and policy
of the Overstrand municipality which in my opinion is good and has been used and applied to their
employees for a long time. However, the aforesaid municipality apparently has not explored other
current performance appraisal methods for its employees. It might have been a good idea to try and
test alternative and new methods of performance evaluation such as self–performance assessment
and others which will be discussed at a later stage in my presentation. The former (self–performance
assessment) has been used and applied successfully in my organization for which I am working and
has yielded good results and enhanced employee performance as well as employee – employer good
working relationship. Cascio and Anguinis (2014:81) argued that it is a good idea to have employees
judge their own performance in an organization. The performance evaluation or assessment in my
experience is always accompanied by goal or target setting and their achievement thereof. The self–
performance method should improve individual's motivation and reduce defensiveness during
performance evaluation sessions. Based on my experience of the public and private sector, after
self–performance evaluation there is a supervisor's performance rating based on the key
performance indicators that have been achieved on a quarterly basis. If the employee performance

Ghana Performance Management Essay
Performance Management at the University of Ghana
The Balme library at the University of Ghana as implemented a performance management (PM)
system to serve their diverse customer base. However, there have been issues with the PM system
that was put in place. Some issues are the lack of a job analysis, employees are rated on vague items,
and management does not work with the employees with feedback or development. Out of these
issues the most important one is the lack of training and development by the managers. This issue
can cause the greatest amount of trouble with the performance management system that is being
implemented by the Balme library.
Management Feedback and Development
`Without the support of the management team the PM system on a direct path for failure. The
management team helps to develop, train, and motivated the employees (Hofstede, 1993).
Management is involved with every step in the PM system, from the prerequisites to the
performance renewal and recontracting steps (Aguinis, 2013). Management in the United States
plays a very important role in motivating and managing employees (Hofstede, 1993). To have this
very critical factor removed from the PM system will have detrimental consequences that can lead
to issues for not only the library but the university as a whole.

Performance Of Various Behaviors Of The Management Team
Question 1
A number of different issues at NPR show the impact on performance of various behaviors of the
management team. Poor conflict handling within NPR has lead to poorer performance by the
management team. The jurisdictional ambiguity, or the crossover between where each person thinks
his or her management boundary is, is an ongoing issue. Morgan and Tayor's arguments over what
their exact roles are within the company, as well as on strategies that the company should use to
attract clients is evidence of this.
Different communication styles used by senior management within NPR impacts the performance of
staff in different ways. The use of empathy by Taylor in her dealings with staff has meant that she is
able to get what she needs ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The use of reward power means NPR continues to perform and staff are happy within the business.
Taylor uses reward power in her dealing with both staff and suppliers to get what she needs. This
use of power helps Taylor and the business remain successful, and maintain good relationships
internally and externally.
Another form of power used within NPR which impacts on performance are coercive power, which
is also proves to be a tool to provide good business outcomes. Coercive power is defined by Nelson
et al, 2012, p.167 as "power that is based on the agents ability to cause the target to have an
unpleasant experience". Morgan uses this power to strong–arm and keep projects running to a tight
schedule and within budget. Morgan's use of this power means business objectives are met, though
staff may not perform as well as if they were handled differently.
The use of information power is also evident at NPR. Information power is defined as "access and
control over important information" Nelson et al, 2012, p.169. Craig uses information power over
Charlotte to ensure his project is funded. Craig uses the fact he is an IT expert, and Charlotte a
novice in the areas to meet his ends. This means that Craig can have funding for his project, but
possibly correct oversight isn't in place due to a lack of knowledge more broadly across the NPR

collaboration for the completion of it there are many benefits that will help the team as a whole and

with team collaboration is increased productivity, better team communication skills, brings the team

Team building takes place when you clarify the team's purpose and goals, ensure that its members
work well together, strengthen the team's collective skills, enhance commitment and confidence,
remove externally imposed obstacles and create opportunities for team members to develop their
skills and competencies. A team is a group of people with complementary skills who work together
to achieve a common purpose. Their team leader sets the direction, provides guidance and support,
coordinates the team's activities, ensures that each team member plays his or her part, promotes the
learning and development of team members, consults with the team on issues affecting its work and,
in conjunction with team members, monitors and reviews team performance. However, some
organizations have developed the concept of self–managing teams which are largely autonomous,
responsible to a considerable degree for planning and scheduling work, problem solving, developing
their own key performance indicators and setting and monitoring team performance and quality
standards. The role of their team leaders is primarily to act as coordinators and facilitators; their

Ratings and reward will be equal for all team members regardless of individual performance.
According to IAG report (1993), this can dissatisfy those who normally have outstanding ratings
based on their personal performance. Some members may also resent that their pay is dependent
upon other performance. Thus, that can decrease employees' motivation and cause dissatisfaction.
Performance problems may not also be addressed adequately. It will cause many difficulties for
individual management such as disciplinary and promotions decision.
Because of above reasons, many managers like to use individual PA. Additionally, even though
teams are widespread in many organizations, most work is still independent. Teams may only be
used occasionally or may often change to work task. Another advantage of individual PA is that
employees prefer individual PA. The survey of Federal Employees (1992) showed that 69
percentages of employees prefer that their performance rating be based on individual performance,
not team performance. The survey also indicated that the employees prefer being assessed by the
first–lever supervisor than by coworker. Team based PA may be against UK culture of
individualism. Therefore, if the managers want to focus on team based PA, they need provide further
training for the employees.

tendency error. It had 13 rating levels and lacked a described evaluation criteria. As one can

This policy is damaging the company because the initial objective of Vitality, which is also the root
cause of the problem, was the attempt to decrease turnover and attract top talent. Those objectives
are not being met and the high performers are the ones who have turnover intentions. Another
problem is the fact that there is no control or monitoring by a responsible team. As we explained
above, managers have the freedom to evaluate performance as they want and sometimes there are
some abuses. For this reason there should be someone with aim of supervise the all process or give
support to the evaluators. The main cause for this problem is, again, the low importance that Vitality
gives to the performance system. The final problem that we identified is the incoherence of
inclusion of the cumulative merit in the calculation of salaries. In the case–study we can read that
the system includes cumulative merit. However it is not clear how it is included in the compensation
system. In one hand it is said that they measure performance over time at Vitality but in the other
hand it is not accounted for rewarding employees. To conclude, we can say that the Performance
Management System does not include fairness in what regards to performance. One can see that
there is a lot of variation in employees' performance but those differences are not being pointed and

An Effective Performance Management System Essay
Defined as "a process by which managers and employees work together to plan, monitor, and review
an employee's work objectives and overall contribution to the organization," performance
management represents an integral aspect of human capital management that has evolved
dramatically over the last few decades (HR Resource Center). From the 1970s where annual
evaluation was the standard, to results–based evaluations measured by outcome–oriented goals,
present day performance management focuses on continuous communication, coaching, and
feedback between a supervisor and an employee to accomplish both the strategic objectives of the
organization and the career goals of the employee (UC Berkeley Human Resources, 2016).
However, an efficacious performance management system requires more than an update of an
organization's performance management process and strategies.
A survey performed by Watson Wyatt showed that only three out of 10 workers agreed that their
company's performance management system helps improve performance and less than 40 percent of
employees said their systems established clear performance goals, generated honest feedback or
used technology to streamline the process (Pulakos, 2004). The successful utilization of a
performance management system is dependent on an organization's approach for "establishing a
shared understanding about what is to be achieved, and how it is to be achieved" with its employees

It's been three weeks since HR and myself met with you to officially notify your enrollment to the performance improvement plan. Normally, the performance progress review meeting takes place within two weeks of your enrollment.

"When a team is formed it focuses on the future and once it succeeds it focuses on the past" by Edwin Lee. AT&T is a successful company and the largest long distance carrier in the United States. But by focusing on their past successes, they failed to look towards the future. On the contrast, Black & Decker looked for solutions that would transform their company to succeed in the future. Comparing these two companies show how the management teams of an organization can guide a company's destiny. Can success breed failure? That is the opinion of Edwin Lee. He cited the success of IBM with their introduction of the IBM PC, followed with a failure, the PC Jr. Apple Inc. was successful with its Apple II and followed with a failure, Lisa. He is of the opinion that success of a product by a management team can lead to the failure of the next product. Can failure breed success? In Edwin Lee's article he examined generals Norman Schwartzkopf and Colin Powell, whom both served during the Vietnam War. He suggests that experience earned from the failures of Vietnam, both men the wisdom and knowledge to lead to the success of Desert Storm.

The stages are "forming", "storming", "norming", "performing" and, more recently, "reforming". Mazany, Francis and Sumich (1995) elaborate on the topic: "Team building is an investment in the "people" resource of an organization. Important to any investment decision is an assessment of how effective are the outcomes in relation to the money and time spent. So it is vital to measure effectiveness, and this can be done through the use of case studies and questionnaires. Team development should not disguise the fact that a team contains individuals. Rather, it should highlight that it is individualism that provides a team with tremendous amounts of power, and should help to develop the individuals to improve their contribution to the team." Tuckman 's model suggests that as the team moves through the stages of development members are concerned with resolving both inter–personal relationships and task activities. During the forming stage, members complete initial assessments of inter–personal relationships and norms, and attempt to identify the nature and extent of required task activities. The storming stage is characterised by intra–group conflict in respect of both inter–personal relationships (as behaviour norms and leadership have yet to be established) and task activities (caused in part by emotional ...

The rating of record is assigned according to procedures included in the organization 's appraisal program. It is based on work performed during an entire appraisal period. The rating of record has a bearing on various other personnel actions, such as granting within–grade pay increases and determining additional retention service credit in a reduction in force.Note: Although group performance may have an impact on an employee 's summary rating, a rating of record is assigned only to an individual, not to a group. | | | | In an effective organization, rewards are used well.

This notion or action could exclude independent resources from getting along well with the project team since they are aware they are deliberately shut off or starved of necessary information to work with. ❖ Focussed on their personal ambitions and may not be interested in team work: Hired independent contractors see themselves as very valuable people due to the skills they possess and many of them have personal ambitions on just delivering on what they were asked to do solely, not working as team to achieve success together. Often times, they work alone to achieve results so they will remain relevant to the project superior to others. Such actions hinder team building and diminish interdependence that is vital in a cohesive and high performing team. There is less control of their activities and how they want it done (Dunlap & Girvin 2009, p.14) ❖ Envy from employees who think they earn less: Often times, hired contractors earn far more than organization employees for same work they do on a project.

According to Briscoe & Schuler (2004), performance can be viewed as a combination of several variables, such as motivation, ability, working conditions and expectations. Variables which have a direct effect on employee productivity in organisations and the ability of such organisations to meet its strategic objectives. As such, performance appraisal systems seek to align employee behaviour, activities and performance to organisational objectives and corporate strategy. As stated earlier, performance appraisals are an important part of performance management. By itself, it's not performance management but one of the tools used in managing performance. Common anecdotes tend to state that organisations that conduct performance appraisals have performance management systems which are false. Performance management is broad in the sense that it is a congruence of activities which involve the management of individuals and groups to achieve high levels of organisational performance. Performance appraisals on the other hand are operational activities concerned with the individual and their performance and development.

We decided we would put the PIP into place to help her to have some clear goals and objectives to work towards within a timescale.

Netflix : Recognition Strategy For Netflix Recognition Strategy With the Netflix culture, employees are intrinsically motivated to perform at a high standard and to remain an employee with Netflix. The recognition strategy for Netflix begins with the recruiting and hiring process. To them, it is imperative to hire fully formed adults that are having the required skills to be high performers within their respective department. The Netflix HR department stated that in most organizations, 97% of the employees ensure that they are doing the right thing. It's the 3% of employees that companies spend endless time and money to write and enforce HR policies to deal with the problems. The goal for Netflix is to not hire those 3% of employees. If they do, they easily let them go as a hiring mistake. After finding hiring the right employee, Netflix believes in making their base salary strong. Their goal is to keep each employee's pay at the top of the market for what that specific individual would be paid elsewhere. Netflix states three major goals when determining the individuals pay. These are to pay them more than anyone else likely would, as much as a replacement would cost, and to keep them if they had a higher offer elsewhere. To ensure Netflix is offering this premium pay, they encourage employees to talk to recruiters from competitors, ask how much they could get paid, and respond back to Netflix with the number.

However, there have been issues with the PM system that was put in place. Some issues are the lack of a job analysis, employees are rated on vague items, and management does not work with the employees with feedback or development.

This use of power helps Taylor and the business remain successful, and maintain good relationships internally and externally. Another form of power used within NPR which impacts on performance are coercive power, which is also proves to be a tool to provide good business outcomes. Coercive power is defined by Nelson et al, 2012, p.167 as "power that is based on the agents ability to cause the target to have an unpleasant experience". Morgan uses this power to strong–arm and keep projects running to a tight schedule and within budget. Morgan's use of this power means business objectives are met, though staff may not perform as well as if they were handled differently. The use of information power is also evident at NPR. Information power is defined as "access and control over important information" Nelson et al, 2012, p.169. Craig uses information power over Charlotte to ensure his project is funded. Craig uses the fact he is an IT expert, and Charlotte a novice in the areas to meet his ends.

Team building takes place when you clarify the team's purpose and goals, ensure that its members work well together, strengthen the team's collective skills, enhance commitment and confidence, remove externally imposed obstacles and create opportunities for team members to develop their skills and competencies. A team is a group of people with complementary skills who work together to achieve a common purpose. Their team leader sets the direction, provides guidance and support, coordinates the team's activities, ensures that each team member plays his or her part, promotes the learning and development of team members, consults with the team on issues affecting its work and, in conjunction with team members, monitors and reviews team performance. However, some organizations have developed the concept of self–managing teams which are largely autonomous, responsible to a considerable degree for planning and scheduling work, problem solving, developing their own key performance indicators and setting and monitoring team performance and quality standards.

According to IAG report (1993), this can dissatisfy those who normally have outstanding ratings based on their personal performance. Some members may also resent that their pay is dependent upon other performance. Thus, that can decrease employees' motivation and cause dissatisfaction. Performance problems may not also be addressed adequately. It will cause many difficulties for individual management such as disciplinary and promotions decision. Because of above reasons, many managers like to use individual PA. Additionally, even though teams are widespread in many organizations, most work is still independent. Teams may only be used occasionally or may often change to work task. Another advantage of individual PA is that employees prefer individual PA. The survey of Federal Employees (1992) showed that 69 percentages of employees prefer that their performance rating be based on individual performance, not team performance. The survey also indicated that the employees prefer being assessed by the first–lever supervisor than by coworker. Team based PA may be against UK culture of individualism.

Firstly, the old system was prone to central tendency error. It had 13 rating levels and lacked a described evaluation criteria.

In the case, one can read that managers gave almost to everyone a B or a C, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This policy is damaging the company because the initial objective of Vitality, which is also the root cause of the problem, was the attempt to decrease turnover and attract top talent. Those objectives are not being met and the high performers are the ones who have turnover intentions. Another problem is the fact that there is no control or monitoring by a responsible team. As we explained above, managers have the freedom to evaluate performance as they want and sometimes there are some abuses. For this reason there should be someone with aim of supervise the all process or give support to the evaluators. The main cause for this problem is, again, the low importance that Vitality gives to the performance system. The final problem that we identified is the incoherence of inclusion of the cumulative merit in the calculation of salaries. In the case–study we can read that the system includes cumulative merit. However it is not clear how it is included in the compensation system. In one hand it is said that they measure performance over time at Vitality but in the other hand it is not accounted for rewarding employees. To conclude, we can say that the Performance Management System does not include fairness in what regards to performance. One can see that there is a lot of variation in employees' performance but those differences are not being pointed and consequently there are no consequences in the compensation package of low, ...

  • 79. An Effective Performance Management System Essay Defined as "a process by which managers and employees work together to plan, monitor, and review an employee's work objectives and overall contribution to the organization," performance management represents an integral aspect of human capital management that has evolved dramatically over the last few decades (HR Resource Center). From the 1970s where annual evaluation was the standard, to results–based evaluations measured by outcome–oriented goals, present day performance management focuses on continuous communication, coaching, and feedback between a supervisor and an employee to accomplish both the strategic objectives of the organization and the career goals of the employee (UC Berkeley Human Resources, 2016). However, an efficacious performance management system requires more than an update of an organization's performance management process and strategies. A survey performed by Watson Wyatt showed that only three out of 10 workers agreed that their company's performance management system helps improve performance and less than 40 percent of employees said their systems established clear performance goals, generated honest feedback or used technology to streamline the process (Pulakos, 2004). The successful utilization of a performance management system is dependent on an organization's approach for "establishing a shared understanding about what is to be achieved, and how it is to be achieved" with its employees (Tracey B.

Cohesiveness was defined as "a dynamic process that is reflected in the tendency for a group to stick together and remain united in the pursuit of its instrumental objectives and/or for the satisfaction of member affective needs" (Carron, Brawley, & Widmeyer, 1998, p. 213). Tuckman (1965) theorise that there are four stages in team development; forming, storming, norming and performing. From the four stages, it is believed that the forming, storming and norming stages lead the team to self–develop cohesiveness.

They were (1) planned, (2) facilitated by an outside consultant, (3) engaged in by intact workgroups, (4) designed to develop the problem–solving capability of the crews, and (5) intended to solve major problems" (p. 311). Planned would be the list of things that the participants need to achieve during the team–building activities. A 3rd party consultant or event organizer would be engaged by an organization to provide training to its employees. The trainer will need to plan and execute the activities to only the specific group of employees as requested by the organization. The training package would be tailored and help employees develop problem solving skills to address issues faced by the organization. Synergy as described by Scarnati (2001) is "a process of interaction where 2 + 2 = 10. It is a magnifying effect of each component in which the whole surpasses the sum of the parts" (p. 6). When team members can contribute effectively together, it can result in a direct and indirect multiplied effect to the issues they wish to tackle. Team building can be described as a continuous learning process and should not be a one–time activity. The idea is to assist the team to function effectively through on–going process of self–evaluation and consciousness. However, some managers were pessimistic about any positive effects from team building. They have experienced that in some team building activities, the debriefing session turned out to be finger pointing, focus on mistakes rather than improvement. Team building becomes a backlash on creating synergy, and performance actually decreased instead of becoming better (Dyer & Dyer, 2013, p. 23). Klein et al.
